    Product Description

    The professional 055 redefines the 3-section aluminum tripod, delivering an unprecedented level of stiffness. The key feature of the MT055XPRO3 is its 90° column, which allows the column to be extended vertically or horizontally. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top casting for compactness, but it is easily and quickly extended whenever you need it. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly, and can even be done with a camera attached. The legs of the 055XPRO3 tripod are also fast to extend and adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers. The special design of the QPL levers allows single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. Intuitive and ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently and solidly set to any of the preset angles, allowing positioning freedom. A bubble level is built in to the top of the center column for precise framing. The bubble level rotates freely around the center column, so it can be positioned wherever it's easiest to see. The top casting of the 055XPRO3 has an Easy Link connector for supporting photo or video accessories (such as an LED light, flash, or reflector) on an extending arm or bracket, transforming the tripod into a practical mobile studio. Technical Specifications: Closed Length 24.02”; Leg Angles 25°/46°/66°/88°; 3 Leg Sections; Legs Tube Diameter 1.18-1.02 0.89”; Load Capacity 19.84 lbs; Maximum Height (with Center Column Down) 55.12”; Maximum Height 66.93”; Minimum Height 3.54”; Weight 5.51 lbs.

    Customers like the quality of the camera tripod. For example, they say it has strong legs, and provides a bit more stability. The neck is well-built, and the tripod is good for still and video work.

    Customers like the weight of the camera tripod. Some say it's light enough that they have just given up on travel tripods, while others say it is heavy compared to many other tripods. However, most find the weight to be portable and the carbon fiber version is a perfect size and weight for hiking to remote places. It's easy to collapse and carry around, and the height options yet collapses small enough for local transport.

    Customers like the value of the camera tripod. They say it's well worth the money, and is an affordable but professional setup.

    "...Absolutely worth the money...." Read more

    "...Overall I think it is certainly a decent value for the money, especially if you don't plan on abusing it in the field too much." Read more

    "...Otherwise this tripod, though slightly heavy, is worth the money for its sturdiness, reliability, and durability." Read more

    49 customers mention46 positive3 negative

    Customers find the camera tripod easy to use. They mention it's sturdy, and easy to set up quickly. Some appreciate the intuitive and easy-to-operate leg locks.

    25 customers mention20 positive5 negative

    Customers like the fit of the camera tripod. For example, they mention it's versatile in height options, easy to adjust to any height, and sturdy. It's tall enough to easily see through the camera viewfinder and angle over the front of a group to catch the back rows. The head stage is large and fits the bill nicely for a smaller rig.

    "...It is amazing how low to the ground that you can set it up for close up photography as well as changing your prospective on a landscape shot...." Read more

    "...extended (all leg sections, not center post), this tripod is surprisingly tall - I am 5'9" and with camera mounted on a vertical pistol grip,..." Read more

    "...Very smooth panning and up and down motion. Easy to lock and unlock the legs and is very durable...." Read more

    "...In particular, the Manfrotto leg locks are noticeably superior to the Benro's..." Read more

    "...The center column locks very well and there is no wobble.Learn from my poor experience and move on, this is not a good product." Read more

    "...The locking levers are secure and quick to operate. My only complaint is that it's easy to accidentally pinch your fingers if you're not careful." Read more

    36 customers mention25 positive11 negative

    Customers have mixed opinions about the adjustability of the camera tripod. Some mention that it's easily adjustable, and beyond any tripod they have ever tried before. They appreciate the good adjustment function and nice grip on leg. However, others say that the tension has to be adjusted, the adjusters for leg angle are somewhat stiff, and difficult to actuate quickly. Some customers also mention that the legs were a little stiff at first but after a few uses they became much easier. Overall, opinions are mixed and it'd be best to read the reviews carefully before making a purchase.

    "...This Manfrotto tripod sets up quick and easy, and is pretty simple to adjust...." Read more

    "...The leg locks work well. Adjustable so you can loosen or tighten the amount of clamping tension...." Read more

    "...The center post adjustment is very easy to operate...." Read more

    "...Observations: The leg latches are a bit tight to undo at first, but I ascribe that to being cautious that the wear doesn't eventually loosen them..." Read more

    23 customers mention0 positive23 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the stability of the camera tripod. They mention that the legs started to fall off and the center column started to slip. The balance gets thrown off easily and the tripod is not suitable for heavy-duty use.

    "...board and the wood surface had wet slimy surface cover--the tripod would not stay put, but I imagine any tripod would have had a problem with this..." Read more

    "...While I was familiarizing myself with the new tripod, this snap ring came loose, and the two collar pieces with a small black plastic spacer fell to..." Read more

    "...n't work very well if it's high off the ground because the balance gets thrown off easily, even with a lighter weight lens--you'll either need to..." Read more

    "...ease of use and apparent durability, a little shy on rigidity, but within expectations...." Read more

    Fantastic Tripod!!!

    Fantastic Tripod!!!
    Well worth the money!I won’t go into specs about the Manfrotto 055. If you are looking for these, simply look at the description. I did however, attach a few pictures comparing the size of the tubing of this model compared to a Manfrotto 190XB using a digital caliper. Huge difference that really isn’t shown by the photographs.This tripod is impressive to say the least. I already own a Manfrotto 190XB and have used this as my go to tripod for at least five years. I have gotten into night photography recently and have a few dslrs, but only the one tripod. Well, it was time to purchase a new addition to my gear. Impressed with the sturdiness, quality, and build of the 190XB, I decided to stick with the Manfrotto brand.I decided on the Manfrotto 055 based on my prior experience with Manfrotto, along with the many reviews available online. Upon arrival, I was instantly impressed with the build of this model. It is “supersized” compared to my 190XB. See the attached pictures. This product is built to top quality standards. A bit heavy of a tripod to use as a walk around, but if you travel by car, or motorcycle and only plan a few hundred yards walk to your subject, this shouldn’t be an issue. However, if you plan on backpacking this tripod, be ready for the extra weight of this model. It will wear you down within an hour or so. It is by no means small or ultra-lite.This is extremely sturdy and needs no extra weight to keep it steady on a breezy day. I am 100% Satisfied!Manfrotto isn’t cheap stuff. Top of the line for the money spent.
